Less than $85 on Amazon, and works a charm for local repeater work. https://smile.amazon.com/KT-8900D-Upgrade-Version-KT-8900-Transceiver/dp/B08XBRGRWG/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=kt-8900d&qid=1626125581&sr=8-3 It's "only" 25 watts, and it doesn't have a detachable face, but it's pretty small. I mounted it in the center console of my 4Runner, between the cup holder and the "whatever stuff" compartment. -j ________________________________ From: BVARC <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> on behalf of Blake Present via BVARC <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Monday, July 12, 2021 4:19 PM To: BRAZOS VALLEY AMATEUR RADIO CLUB <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: Blake Present <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: [BVARC] looking for a radio that can Mike, Send me a private email at [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>.
